About forty years ago a man
Scotch descent moved from Chica
go and bought a farm joining
.Arths. He knew nothing about S-20-4t
Harming, but tried to grow about
everything his neighbors grew. He
grew some cane and had some mo
lasses to make. He hauled his cane
down to Arths to have il ground
and boiled. Arth, (good neighbor
like), helped him to make his mo-
la.sses and by the lime they fin
ished it W,as midnight or later.
The Scotchman had nothing to put
his molasses in save a wash tub
and as he went home that night the
tub slid oft his sled and capsized
the contents into a gully. 'Ihere
was no one along save himself and
it is to be conjectured whether he
used any Sunday school words.
Since Arth and Mandy have been
in our midst they have undergone
two inudations or floods, one in
July, 1916, and one in Aug., 1940.
The last one, the most disastrous
in all tradition, came at night and
in leaps and bounds. The first
thing they knew the water was up
in their home and still rising. The
watei-s had already destroyed the
electric light line. They had noth
ing but an oil lantern which they
j made use of, left it on the table
■w’hile they were trying to carry
i things out of the house and while
they were out the water still rising
got the lantern. There they were
